and fiscal 2013, including revenue, gross margin, operating expenses, cash balances, inventory, capital expenditures and
profitability; our ability to achieve positive free cash flow and operating profitability in the second half of 2013; our target
optimal cash balance and minimum target cash balance; our ability to build leadership IP; that revenue from embedded
and semi-custom products will comprise 20% of our revenue by the fourth quarter of 2013; our ability to transition 40-50%
of our business to high growth adjacent markets; and our ability to achieve target operating expenses by the third quarter
of 2013, which are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of
1995. Forward-looking statements are commonly identified by words such as “believes,” “expects,” “may,” “will,” “should,”
“seeks,” “intends,” “plans,” “estimates,” “anticipates,” “projects,” “would,” and other terms with similar meaning. Investors
are cautioned that the forward-looking statements in this document are based on current beliefs, assumptions and
expectations, speak only as of the date of this document and involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual
results to differ materially from current expectations. Risks include the possibility that Intel Corporation's pricing,
marketing and rebating programs, product bundling, standard setting, new product introductions or other activities may
negatively impact the company's current plans; the company may be unable to develop, launch and ramp new products
and technologies in the volumes that are required by the market and at mature yields on a timely basis; that its third party
wafer foundry suppliers will be unable to transition the company’s products to advanced manufacturing process
technologies in a timely and effective way or to manufacture the company’s products on a timely basis in sufficient
quantities and using competitive technologies; the company will be unable to obtain sufficient manufacturing capacity or
components to meet demand for its products; the company’s requirements for wafers are less than the fixed number of
wafers that it agreed to purchase from GF or GF encounters problems that significantly reduce the number of functional
die the company receives from each wafer; that we are unable to successfully implement our long-term business
strategy; that customers stop buying the company's products or materially reduce their operations or demand for the
company’s products; that the company may be unable to maintain the level of investment in research and development
that is required to remain competitive; that there may be unexpected variations in market growth and demand for the
company's products and technologies in light of the product mix that it may have available at any particular time or a
decline in demand; the company will require additional funding and may be unable to raise sufficient capital on favorable
terms, or at all; that global business and economic conditions will not continue to improve or will worsen; that demand for
computers will be lower than currently expected; and the effect of political or economic instability, domestically or
internationally, on the company’s sales or supply chain. Investors are urged to review in detail the risks and uncertainties
in the company's Securities and Exchange Commission filings, including but not limited to the Quarterly Report on form
10-Q for the quarter ended March 30, 2013.

FOOTNOTES
Non-GAAP Measures:
To supplement the Company’s financial results presented on a U.S. GAAP (“GAAP”) basis, this commentary contains non-GAAP financial measures, including non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP operating income (loss), non-GAAP net income (loss), non-GAAP earnings (loss) per share, adjusted EBITDA, and non-GAAP free cash flow. These non-GAAP financial measures reflect certain adjustments, and the Company has presented a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures in the appendices below.
The Company presented “Adjusted EBITDA” in the commentary as a supplemental measure of its performance. Adjusted EBITDA for the Company is determined by adjusting operating income (loss) for depreciation and amortization, employee stock-based compensation expense and amortization of acquired intangible assets. In addition, the Company also included certain adjustments presented in the appendices for the applicable periods. The Company calculates and communicates Adjusted EBITDA because the Company’s management believes it is of importance to investors and lenders in relation to its overall capital structure and its ability to borrow additional funds. In addition, the Company presents Adjusted EBITDA because it believes this measure assists investors in comparing its performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that the Company does not believe are indicative of its core operating performance. The Company’s calculation of Adjusted EBITDA may or may not be consistent with the calculation of this measure by other companies in the same industry. Investors should not view Adjusted EBITDA as an alternative to the GAAP operating measure of operating income (loss) or GAAP liquidity measures of cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA does not take into account changes in certain assets and liabilities as well as interest and income taxes that can affect cash flows.
The Company also presented non-GAAP free cash flow in this commentary as a supplemental measure of its performance. Non-GAAP free cash flow for the Company was determined by adjusting GAAP net cash provided by (used in) operating activities for capital expenditures. The Company calculates and communicates non-GAAP free cash flow because the Company’s management believes it is of importance to investors to understand the nature of this cash flow. The Company’s calculation of non-GAAP free cash flow may or may not be consistent with the calculation of this measure by other companies in the same industry. Investors should not view non-GAAP free cash flow as an alternative to GAAP liquidity measures of cash flows from operating activities. The Company has provided reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.
The Company is providing these financial measures because it believes this non-GAAP presentation makes it easier for investors to compare its operating results for current and historical periods and also because the Company believes it assists investors in comparing the Company’s performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that it does not believe are indicative of its core operating performance.
